Ace and Lungbarrow
I have a piece of Ace's internal dialogue from NA: Lungbarrow
- The weapon had been a high-impulse carbine - the sort of heavy-duty gun carried by anti-Dalek squads in the Flova trenches during her time with the Irregulars. One raser lozenge could slice the legs off a Marsh-Dalek at sixty metres.[1]
Could someone more familiar with Ace's history place this time-wise and possibly parse the meaning of "raser lozenge".--Nyktimos 02:45, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
- Time wise it occurs during Ace's time with the Spacefleet, which begins sometime around when she leaves the Doctor in Love and War and ends when she rejoins him in Deceit. There aren't any stories I know of that actually cover her time with the Spacefleet though.
- As far as 'razor lozenge' I'm really not sure, however I think in either Shadowmind or Falls the Shadow Ace has developed Nitro-9 like bombs that are saliva activated (you put them in your mouth or chew them and then spit them out - bang. If you swallow them the stomach acids neutralise the bomb). That's the only think I can thing of. But from the way it's written it sounds like something the regular military carries rather than something Ace created. --Tangerineduel 05:29, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
- God only knows what a "raser lozenge" is. As if Lungbarrow didn't do enough damage to DW, it also decided to completely make up words.
